Short Bio
I'm a Ph.D. candidate at University of Southern California, advised by Prof. Liang Chen. My research focuses on the junction of machine learning, statistics and molecular biology.

I received my B.E. degree from Xiamen University with a major of Automation in 2021, advised by Prof. Jinting Guan.

I was born in Qingdao, a beautiful coastal city in China.
